    280// Birth Control Side Effects: What They’re Doing to Your Gut, Thyroid, and Brain - with Leisha Drews, FDN-P

    Do you know what’s happening in your body when you take birth control?   Most women are told about the obvious birth control side effects — a little weight gain, maybe some mood swings — but you have to work MUCH harder to find anyone talking about the deeper impacts on your brain, thyroid, gallbladder, gut, and even fertility.   That’s why today I’m talking with hormone expert Leisha Drews - mom of 3, RN, FDN-P, RCPC, Holistic Hormone Coach, and host of the Happily Hormonal Podcast. Leisha brings a wonderful understanding of how our body systems work together and how stress on the body and mind impact overall health.    Together, we’re tackling the dirty details of birth control: Different types of birth control availableHow they actually work in the bodyAnd the real birth control side effects you need to know before making a decision   Because the truth is — birth control side effects go far beyond what your doctor explains.   We’re talking changes to memory, mood, attraction, thyroid health, nutrient depletion, and even your risk of autoimmune disease.   So if you’ve ever wondered: birth control, how does it work? What are the real trade-offs? And what should you focus on if you’re thinking about coming off it? — then you are in the right place.   And whether you’re looking into birth control implants, birth control pills, birth control with no hormones, or a birth control patch… whatever type of birth control you’re considering — this episode is for you.   TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 - Intro00:19 - Guest Introduction00:45 - Birth Control Overview04:15 - Types and Mechanisms06:42 - Hormonal Birth Control Effects18:20 - Brain Effects25:23 - Gut and Gallbladder32:17 - Thyroid and Nutrient Depletion40:34 - Copper IUD Discussion50:05 - Fertility Awareness Method55:55 - Outro/Contact Info     EPISODES MENTIONED:241// Gallbladder Disease Symptoms and How to Naturally Treat Gallstones and Avoid Gallbladder SurgeryHappily Hormonal Episodes mentioned:E165: How Hormonal Birth Control Affects the Gut and How to Replenish & Restore Gut Health Post PillE166: Restoring Minerals & Liver Detox Post Birth Control   CONNECT WITH THE GUEST:Leisha's WebsiteFollow Leisha on Instagram: @leishadrewsListen to Leisha's Podcast, Happily Hormonal!Take Leisha's FREE Hormone Imbalance...

    279// Why Going Low FODMAP, Paleo, or Gluten-Free Isn’t Healing Your Gut

    Have you ever felt like you've tried every gut healing diet out there — low FODMAP diet, paleo diet, gluten-free diet, low histamine diet, or a candida cleanse — and still deal with stubborn symptoms? Symptoms like...   Bloating, fatigue, constipation. Skin issues like acne or eczema. Hormonal symptoms like PMS or mood swings. Or mystery symptoms your doctors can't find a cause for.   If you've been relying on food restrictions to heal your gut — or hoping that cutting just one more food will finally fix your digestion, hormones, or skin — here's the truth:   Food restrictions alone cannot heal your gut.   Yes, a gut health diet may bring relief from symptoms, but it's not a long-term solution. If food restrictions so far have not healed your gut or symptoms you're trying to correct, then there IS no mystery, perfect diet out there waiting for you.   The real issue isn't the food you're eating (or not eating) - it's the fact that you're not looking OUTSIDE of diet to the hidden root causes driving your symptoms.    If you’re only looking at food restrictions address the real root causes behind your gut problems, you’re only scratching the surface.   In today’s episode, I’m revealing:   Why food restrictions may reduce symptoms but never reverse gut dysfunctionThe biological reason your food sensitivity list may be getting longerThe 4 overlooked root causes that stall gut healing — even on a perfect dietThe specific lab tests that can literally SHOW you YOUR specific path to healing    Healing should never feel like a never-ending guessing game of whack-a-mole.    If you're ready for real gut healing, not just symptom suppression, then this episode is for you.   TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Introduction: The Limitations of Gut Healing Diets  01:52 - Welcome to the Better Belly Podcast  05:06 - The Five Toxin Trap: A Holistic Approach to Gut Health  17:32 - The Importance of Proper Testing  30:54 - Conclusion: Pathways to Effective Healing   EPISODES MENTIONED:​233// H.

    278// How to find quick bloating relief with candida for a TTC momma

    Do you ever feel like your bloating has a mind of its own — showing up no matter what you eat? You’ve tried cutting foods, sipping kombucha, taking probiotics… but your belly still feels like it’s about to pop.   Why is this?   Spoiler alert: I'm about to talk about something NO ONE is talking about on the internet. And that is... your bloating is persistent because it can have MANY causes.   If you don’t know your specific cause, you’re just guessing at remedies. That’s why, for many of my clients, some of the most popular “bloating remedies” (like probiotics, apple cider vinegar, and more) have even made symptoms worse.   In today’s episode, I’m answering a question from a listener who’s dealing with severe bloating every single day — plus candida overgrowth — and is also planning to start trying for a baby soon.   We’ll cover: Why candida isn’t a root cause (and what that means for your bloating)The first changes you can make now to get bloating relief — without making things worseHow to know which bloating natural remedies are right for youWhat you need to know about doing gut and detox protocols while trying to conceive   If you’ve been stuck with a bloated belly and you’re ready for real answers — not just random remedies — this episode is for you.   P.S.

    277// Why Vitamin D, Probiotics & Collagen May Be Wrecking Your Health

    Have you ever bought a supplement because you heard it was healthy… or because your doctor recommended it… but after weeks or even months, you still didn’t feel any better?   Maybe you’ve been faithfully taking Vitamin D, probiotics, or collagen because “everyone says” they’re good for you. But here’s the thing—what if these same supplements are not only not helping… they’re actually making things worse?   In today’s episode, I’m diving into the truth about Vitamin D, probiotics, and collagen - and how they may be draining your wallet and sabotaging your health at the same time.   We’ll talk about the science you probably haven’t heard, the hidden reasons these popular supplements can backfire, and what to do instead so you can stop wasting money and start seeing real results.   If you’re tired of playing supplement roulette—buying bottle after bottle, hoping something will finally work—this episode will help you break the cycle for good.

    275// Spent $10,000+ on Healing and Don't Know Where to Turn? 5 Steps to Take Next

    When clients come to work with me, one of the most common stories I hear is:   "I've already spent THOUSANDS of dollars healing."   This story often comes with a mix of bitterness, grief, and discouragement, but the most dangerous emotion it can come with is distrust.   While other emotions like bitterness and grief can be painful or heavy to bear, distrust is one of the most dangerous emotions I see potential clients have because it breaks their ability to rely on others. Relying on others is something we all need to heal, because whether it's a matter of paying an expert to help us do something or simply trusting a friend or family member to care about us and bear our burdens with us, distrust sows the seed of unwillingness to move forward and get what we actually need to heal - others.   That's why, on today's episode, I'm digging into the topic of how to handle the distrust that comes along when multiple providers or "solutions" you've paid time, money, and effort on end up in disappointment and pain.   On this episode, I'll be sharing parts of my own personal story with distrust and discouragement in my health along with quotes from a book I've been digging into on trust, and stories from the lives of my clients.   Whether you're trying to heal your gut, hormones, thyroid, brain, or any other set of symptoms or diagnoses - I hope this episode encourages you and gives you brain something new to chew on as you move forward in healing.   TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Introduction: The Struggle with Healing and Distrust 00:57 - Today's Episode: Handling Distrust in Healing 01:13 - Personal Stories and Insights on Trust 02:46 - The Importance of Mental, Emotional, and Spiritual Health 03:32 - Lysa TerKeurst and Her Work 07:01 - Trust Issues with Providers and Practitioners 13:35 - Acceptance and Moving Forward 26:00 - Practical Tips for Trust and Healing 33:35 - Resources and Final Thoughts   EPISODES MENTIONED:33// How to Know It’s Time to Get Help + How to Find a GOOD Health Practitioner233// H.

    274// Is Iodine Deficiency behind your constipation, brain fog, weight gain, fatigue? Find out here

    Iodine is the building block to healthy and happy thyroid. Without sufficient iodine, we can't build the very hormones that our thyroid gland is supposed to make - T4 and T3.   So, if you have a deficiency of thyroid hormone, as is in the case of hypothyroidism - why are more doctors looking into iodine deficiency as a possible root cause behind hypothyroidism?   That is a question I'm answering on today's episode, along with the even more important questions of: if you're doctor isn't going to test you, how can YOU evaluate your own iodine levels. And secondly, if they are low, how can you safely build them up again.   There's a lot of controversy around iodine, both on whether or not we even need more iodine in our diets as well as if iodine supplement is even safe.   That's why, on today's episode, we're diving into:   Symptoms of iodine deficiencyWhy iodine in salt is not enoughWhy iodine testing is so hardWhat tests I recommend to evaluate iodine levels3 safety measures for an iodine protocolAccess to my iodine protocol I've used with my own clients   If you're dealing with hypothyroidism, bloating, constipation, brain fog, fatigue, weight gain, or hormonal symptoms like estrogen dominance, PMS, or endometriosis - then this episode is for you.   TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Introduction to Iodine and Thyroid Health 00:25 - Why Doctors Overlook Iodine Deficiency 00:35 - Evaluating Your Own Iodine Levels 00:47 - Controversies Surrounding Iodine 03:28 - Symptoms of Iodine Deficiency 05:02 - Recommended Reading on Iodine 06:27 - Challenges in Iodine Testing 09:22 - Safe Iodine Protocols 17:31 - The Role of the Liver in Thyroid Health 20:57 - Comprehensive Health Programs 31:31 - Conclusion and Final Thoughts     EPISODES MENTIONED:232// Is Sodium Deficiency Causing Your Bloating and Constipation?233// H.
